  • 홍화(Carthamus tinctorius L.)는 세계 여러 나라에 분포하고 있는 초본류이다. 이 종은 경제적으로 중요한데 홍화는 약용, 적색소, 노랑 색소로 이용된다. RAPD 기법으로 홍화의 26 집단 간 유연관계와 유전적 다양성을 조사하였다. 모든 집단에서 123개 밴드를 얻었으며 시발체(primer) 당 평균 9.5개 밴드를 나타내었다. 홍화의 유전적 다양도는 집단 내에 대부분 귀속되며 높은 집단 간 분화를 나타내었다. OPC18-01 밴드는 시리아 그룹에 특이 밴드였으며 다른 나라 집단에서는 발견되지 않았다. 이런 7개 특이 마크(SCAR)를 발견하였다. 비록 홍화의 분석한 개체 수가 적고 각 나라의 대표성을 의미하지 않지만 본 연구 결과 지중해의 지역(모로코, 시리아, 터키)이 인도를 제외한 다른 지역보다 변이가 높았다. 단순히 RAPD만으로 단정하기 어렵지만 홍화의 기원 센터의 후보군으로 지중해 연안으로 추정된다. 인도 역시 홍화의 2차 센터의 후보군이다. RAPD 마커는 홍화의 자연 집단을 분류하는데 효과적이었다.

  • The cultured tuna production which has suddenly expanded at the short time and the demand for it attract attention. Farming mode, distribution transactions, change of the market (domestic and international) and the price trend are reviewed from the Japan's position which is the biggest consuming country. This paper tries to describe the current status of the food system related to the cultured tuna. Japanese government began the development of the tuna culture technology in 1970. It was by the Fisheries Agency's project. Kinki University which is the large scale private university in Japan participated in the project. After that, 32 years have passed. Kinki University established the full farming of the bluefin tuna in August, 2002. On the other hand, in 1974, one Japanese private enterprise began its tuna farming business in Canada. Kinki University gave this company technical cooperation. Also, in the early stages of the 90s, as for the policy of the overseas fishery cooperation foundation, it supported the tuna farming business in Australia. It is very clear to understand that the long-term technological-development has supported the take-off scene of the tuna culture business not only in foreign countries but also in Japan. The total shipment scale of the cultured tuna expanded very much within about 10 recent years. However, the decrease of the wild tuna catch, the reinforcement of the fisheries regulation and the tuna body to dwarf are remarkable now. Under the condition as the mentioned above, Japan's tuna consumption, especially, in the market at the fatty meat of tuna of the cultured tuna is building up firm status. At present, the Mediterranean Sea coastal countries, Australia, Mexico and Japan have the tuna farming sites. Australia farms the southern bluefin tuna. The others do the bluefin tuna. About for 3 years, Japan farms the juvenile of the tuna. The global production areas are as follows. 8 coastal countries of the Mediterranean Sea; 18,000 tons (61 % of the cultured tuna quantity in foreign countries), Mexico; 4,500 ton (15%), Australia; 7,000 tons (24%). In 2003, Japan has 32 managements and 39 offices for tuna farming. In Japan, Kyushu and Okinawa district, the share shows itself as 80 % of the domestic production quantity. Especially, the share of Amami-oshima Island in Kagoshima Prefecture exceeds 60 %. Therefore, this island has the maximum production scale of Japan. The amount of supply of BT and SBT was 56,000 tons in 2004. In Abroad, the tuna farming business forms a fixed connection between the importer and the wholesaler which have their office in Japan. In the field of the capital composition, the payment in advance, transaction and the way of settlement, each maintains their fixed relation. The market conditions of the cultured tuna are supported by "the decline of price level" and "the expansion of the general public consumption segment". These lead a team merchandising, and it is supported by the fixed business connection of each. This makes the profit of each business which are on the cultured tuna distribution. However, they have competition on the power balance among them.

  • 본 연구는 예전부터 혼란스러웠던 한국산 대주둥치속, Macroramphosus 어류의 분류학적 위치를 명확히 하기 위해, 한국산 18개체를 일본/대만산 35개체 및 지중해산 M. scolopax와 형태 및 분자 변이를 비교 분석하였다. 한국, 일본 및 대만산 대주둥치속 어류는 제1등지느러미 극조 길이(A-type은 22.8~32.1%, B-type은 15.6~21.4%), 제1등지느러미와 제2등지느러미 사이 길이(A-type은 6.4~9.7%, B-type은 8.6~13.3%), 체고(A-type은 20.0~28.0%, B-type은 17.3~22.6%)에서 두 type으로 명확히 구분되었으나, 유전적으로는 구분되지 않았다(CR에서 0.0~3.3%, cyt b에서 0.0~1.3%, COI에서 0.0~0.5%). 한편, 한국산 대주둥치는 지중해산 M. scolopax와 유전적으로 명확히 구분되어(CR에서 9.9~11.5%, cyt b에서 3.8~4.6%, COI에서 1.2~3.6%), 최근 사용하고 있는 학명 M. scolopax를 M. japonicus (및/또는 M. sagifue)로 변경해야 할 것이다. 그러나, 본 연구에서 두 type 간 형태변이와 분자변이 간 일치성을 찾지 못했으며, 이는 아마도 그들간에 분화가 상당히 최근에 일어났음을 시사한다. 두 type 간 유전자 교류 정도를 파악하려면 향후 microsatellite와 같은 보다 민감한 마커를 이용한 후속 연구가 필요할 것이다.

  • Today, SPA fills many of the same needs as they did thousands of years ago, including relaxation, wellness and stress relief by incorporating many of the same methods embraced by the ancients such as a multitude of hydrotherapy treatments, thalassotherapy and massage therapy, one of the most widely used SPA treatments. The definition is as follows: SPA is entities devoted to enhancing overall well-being through a variety of professional services that encourage the renewal of mind, body and spirit. It was from here that the concept of modernday SPA evolved, incorporating full health and beauty services along with sport, aquatic and rest facilities. Todays SPA, a absolute concept, is being specialized and spread as fast as undefinable just in a word. Thalassotherapy, a kind of SPA therapy, contains minerals and trace elements. Born more than 4,000 years ago in ancient Egypt, thalassotherapy comes from the Greek words for thalasso(sea water) and therapeia(to heal). Thalassa was the Greek personification of the Mediterranean Sea that surrounded them and gave them so much of their sustenance. It helps to nourish, hydrate and refine skin texture and also eliminate metabolic waste and toxins in the body. Thalassotherapy is recommended for post-natal and postsurgery recovery period, chronic fatigue, circulatory problems, cellulite control and dermatological problems. It's also possible to enjoy the thalassotherapy SPA as a day guest. Be sure to try the jansu massage, given in the heated sea water pool. As a trained therapist gently whisks clients through the womb-warm water, clients can practically feel the toxins leave their body. Many women from all over the world have been kept up beautiful skin with applying thalassotherapy to their faces and bodies since long times and these days in France, they are getting great curative clinical effects from renovative and scientific technological combination. Thus thalassotherapy will be absolutely ultimate form of natural healing which can keep and recover human's health and beauty.

  • The purpose of this study is on the dance costume of ancient Egypt. First, after the present study looked onto a specialty of Egyptian dance, and then the present study classified Egyptian dress into type and form, quality of material and color tone, hair and headdress and other ornaments. Fundamentally, this study was intended to understand the traditional culture and to grasp the peculiarity of Egyptian dancing dress. This study was progressed as a theoretical research by using documents, photographs, literatures of museum, etc. The results of the study could be summarized as follows. Egyptian dancing featured the earliest form of stage dance in the world and improved religion dancing and sideshow dancing getting out of the form of primitive dance, and also there were professional dancers who developed highly skillful dancing technique. They played a role in disseminating it to many countries of the Mediterranean sea. Dancers of Egypt wore a variety of cloths like the general people. Accordingly, there were no big differences in qualify of material, color tone and other ornaments as well. Yet in accordance with improvement of dance, there was a show-up of clothing of professional dancers and changing of detail parts. So dancing dress was formed while distinguished from general clothing. Therefore, dancing dress of Egypt represents racial characteristics, activity, originality and pursues not authority, but respect of physical beauty or natural beauty.

  • We investigated the impacts of the diabatic heating location, vertical profile and basic state on the Rossby wave propagation. To examine the dynamical process of individual responses on the regional heat source, a dry version of the linear baroclinic model was used with climatological summertime (JJA) mean basic state and vertical structure of the diabatic heating for 1979-2008. Two sets of diabatic heating were constructed of those positioned in the mid-latitudes (Tibetan Plateau, eastern Mediterranean Sea, and the west-central Asia) and the tropics (the southern India, Bay of Bengal, and western Pacific). It was found that using the principal component analysis, atmospheric response to diabatic heating reaches to the steady state in 19th days in time. The prescribed mid-latitude forcing forms equivalent barotropic Rossby wave propagation along the westerly Asia jets, whereas the tropical forcing generates the Rossby wave train extending from the tropics to mid-latitudes. In relation to the maximum vertical profile, the mid-level forcing reveals a stronger response than the lower-level forcing, which may be caused by more effective Rossby wave response by the upper-level divergent flow. Under the different sub-seasonal mean state, both of the tropical and mid-latitude forcing induce the different sub-seasonal response intensity, due to the different basic-state wind.

  • Safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) is a herb primarily distributed throughout in the world. We have used the inter-simple sequence repeats (ISSR) technique to investigate the phylogenetic relationships and genetic diversity of C. tinctorius. Of all germplasms, 88.7% were polymorphic among all germplasms. Mean genetic diversity within germplasms was very low (0.048). The Turkey germplasm had the highest expected diversity (0.082) and Australia germplasm was the lowest (0.020). These values indicate that most of the genetic diversity of safflower is found among germplasms and there is a high among-germplasm differentiation. We found eight phenetic bands for determining the specific marker of germplasm with SCAR markers. The regions of the Mediterranean Sea and India may be the most probable candidates for the origin of safflower. The tree showed four major clades: (1) European germplasms, (2) Azerbaijan, Egypt, and Ethiopia, (3) Australia, and (4) America.

  • Offshore wind turbines are relatively complex structural and mechanical systems located in a highly demanding environment. In the present paper the fundamental aspects and the major issues related to the design of these special structures are outlined. Particularly, a systemic approach is proposed for a global design of such structures, in order to handle coherently their different parts: the decomposition of these structural systems, the required performance and the acting loads are all considered under this philosophy. According to this strategy, a proper numerical modeling requires the adoption of a suitable technique in order to organize the qualitative and quantitative assessments in various sub-problems, which can be solved by means of sub-models at different levels of detail, for both structural behavior and loads simulation. Specifically, numerical models are developed to assess the safety performances under aerodynamic and hydrodynamic actions. In order to face the problems of the actual design of a wind farm in the Mediterranean Sea, in this paper, three schemes of turbines support structures have been considered and compared: the mono pile, the tripod and the jacket support structure typologies.

  • Beside that the fish species and their sub-populations are highly important as a keystone species in the coastal and marine ecosystem, there are very few studies on their presence, distribution and temporal variations within and around the lagoon ecosystems in Albania. This paper provides an updated review on the life cycle, fishery, exploitation state and management of the main species that are subject of commercial fishing in the Karavasta lagoon, southeastern Adriatic coast of Albania. Due to the fact that lagoons represent a continuum between continental and marine aquatic ecosystems they play a crucial role in species life cycles. Further on in the circumstances of rapid utilizations and environmental changes, anomalies in salinity and temperatures, accelerated anthropogenic influences their rate of vulnerability is highly increased. Following the requirements of the Water Framework Directive, transitional water, coastal lagoons and estuaries there is a need for urgent monitoring and management approaches. The commercial species include: European eel (Anguilla anguilla), species of Family Mugilidae (Mugil cephalus, Liza ramada, Liza salienes and Chelon labrosus), Seabream (Sparus aurata), Seabass (Dincentrarchus labrax), etc. Fish productivity is oscillating from maximum value of 61.95 kg/ha is recorded in period of 1975-80 and lower value of 31 kg/ha in year 2020. Our study highlights importance of fish and fishery long-term monitoring, and contributes to understand the driving factors in productivity, migration patterns and species ecology in the vital coastal ecosystems.

  • Nine copepod species of the family Artotrogidae Brady, 1880 are described or redescribed from Korea. Included new species are two in the genus Artotrogus Boeck, 1859, one each in the genera Bradypontius Giesbrecht, 1895, Cryptopontius Giesbrecht, 1899, Neopontius Scott T., 1898 and Chejupontius n. gen., and two in the genus Sewellopontius Ummerkutty, 1966. Chejupontius n. gen. resembles Ascidipontius Kim I. H., 1996, Pulicitrogus Kim I. H., 1998, and Sewellopontius in having reduced armature of leg 1, but is distinguished from these and other genera of the family by the large, mediodistally expanded protopod of leg 5 and by a combination of characters exhibited in leg 1 that the first exopodal segment lacks an inner seta, the second exopodal segment lacks an outer spine, the third exopodal segment is armed with three spines plus one to three setae, and the second endopodal segment is armed with a single inner seta. Pteropontius cristatus Giesbrecht, 1895 known previously only from the Mediterranean Sea is redescribed, based on a newly collected specimen from Korea, and P. trimerus Kim I. H., 1996 is removed to the genus Sewellopontius. A short note is given for the epibiotic suctorian Thecacineta calix (Schroder, 1907) which was found attached to the antennule of a new copepod species.
